Core Principles of Production-First Energy Management

• Energy Per Unit of Production: Track energy usage per unit of production (e.g., kWh per widget or gallon produced) to pinpoint inefficiencies. Our platform optimizes processes to cut waste while maintaining or even boosting production rates.
• Integrated Production Metrics: Merge energy data with production data to understand how your operational choices impact energy costs. Quickly identify inefficiencies—whether from peak production demands or idle equipment during downtime.
• Dynamic Adjustments: Align energy consumption with real-time production needs. Scale efficiently during high-demand periods and trim unnecessary energy use during low-production times.

Benefits of Production-First Energy Management

• Cut Costs Without Cutting Corners: Lower energy expenses while ensuring production targets are met or exceeded.
• Sharper Operational Insights: Identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies in your processes with clear, actionable data.
• Sustainability That Drives Results: Achieve meaningful energy efficiency improvements, reduce carbon emissions per unit, and meet your sustainability goals.
• Competitive Edge: Produce more with less energy, enhancing profitability and staying ahead in energy-intensive industries.

How Our Approach Beats Traditional Energy Management

• Traditional Energy Management: Focuses solely on reducing overall energy consumption or peak demand, often at the expense of production goals. This can lead to reduced output or quality.
• Production-First Energy Management: Balances energy reductions with your production targets. By focusing on energy-to-output efficiency, you maintain throughput and quality while lowering energy costs.

How We Deliver Energy-Efficient Production

• Data-Driven Insights: With Ndustrial, you get real-time visibility into energy and production data, empowering better decisions.
• Optimized Equipment Use: Retrofit and enhance equipment to minimize energy consumption without sacrificing productivity.
• Streamlined Workflows: Identify and reduce idle energy use and inefficiencies in production processes.
• Load Matching: Synchronize energy usage with production schedules to maximize the use of variable energy sources such as solar and wind, and to intelligently schedule downtime based on energy market signals.

Improve Your Energy Efficiency

• Energy Audits: Quickly identify how changes in production, e.g., blast freezing, impacts energy and throughput.
• Real-Time Data Collection: Receive real-time data for instant decision-making, analysis, and adjustments to your manufacturing process.
• Production Improvements: Improve individual and site-wide analysis of your production throughput and energy usage via Nsight dashboards.

Control Cost of Operations

• Reduce Energy Bills: Lower your energy costs by quickly identifying expensive energy periods, how much energy is being consumed, and how much you’re paying for your energy.
• Production Performance Insights: Leverage a detailed view of your facility or portfolio KPIs to identify where you may be over-or underperforming.
• Energy Intelligence™ : Receive actionable energy intelligence, from across the portfolio and down to the device level, to help you create energy savings.

Boost Your Margins

• Increase Production: Drive business growth through real-time Energy Intensity KPIs (EnPIs) – uncovering correlations between energy usage and spend per unit of production.
• Energy Submetering: Gain visibility into significant energy users (SEUs) through sub-metering – giving you real-time data on what’s consuming the most energy and allowing you to take preventative action quickly.
• Reasonable Investment Costs: Leverage legacy systems without the need to invest in new technology.
